Monologuing Games....
My fiance is monologuing his Diablo game.... Has been for a whole fricken hour! I think hes so used to having people to talk to on his Halo game that hes not able to play a silent game and not ramble on so.

Well, you can tell everyone is on the diet wagon!
I stopped in yesterday to our local grocery store because they had Lean Cuisines on sale and I picked up a few I thought I would like to take to work.

Is this a cop out?
I have been doing a lot of thinking about where I want to go with my weight loss and I had an original goal of 170 or so. However, lately I have been thinking maybe 200-220.... I have always been comfortable with a little extra weight. I am not necessarily looking to be skinny. I am just wondering if this is a cop out of…

What is a good pedometer?
One that wont break my bank. lol. Id love to get the super deluxe $50-100 model that can measure everything but I just want something that is cheaper, virtually indestructible and will still count steps in a pocket rather than clipped anywhere. My job is VERY active and I dont need it falling everywhere off my waistband.

Got Any Good Kale Recipes?
I just bought some greens, I have never had them before. Its something new. I have been attempting to eat something new or prepare old stuff in a new way every week. This green has always intimidated me. With its creepy wavy leaves and its woody hard stalk... :noway:

How do you approach your workout routine?
Not sure I asked that right but I cant think how better to phrase it. Im talking when you go about working out do you do like upper body one day and lower body the next? Total body everyday? Do you focus more on core exercises? Do you do those everyday or like every other day? I know alot about the eating aspects despite…

Question for the ladies
How do you exercise without your ladies flopping everywhere and causing hurt? I know this is more geared toward those like me with bigger ones. I just hurt so bad after a workout. Id like less impact in that area. Even with a sports bra, these ladies are roughed up quite a bit.

What is with peoples food entries?
Its becoming a serious pet peeve of mine to log food from the site only to find the nutrition information isnt complete. They rarely include sodium and they often times just put the fat and calories. Dont they realize you gain weight from carbs and have a harder time losing weight if you dont watch sodium too? I just dont…

Its a sign for a mechanics shop that features…
